I found this book on Amazon and liked it so I am sharing it with you. Here are review comments left on Amazon about this book.

Lefty Kreh provides an excellent book and dvd, December 21, 2007 Review By Robert Meaher “TARPON TAMER” (ALABAMA) – (REAL NAME)
Having attended Lefty’s seminars, I find that his teaching gift is communicated very well in his writings and video.
There are few people in the world that can throw a fly as well as Lefty and know the proper presentation in all conditions and perform that task in an excellent manner.
Knots are so very important and his knowledge of how to tie these knots and teach others to do the same is presented very nicely in the book and on the video. We spend alot of time and money in pursuit of fish and the instruction presented by Lefty will make us all better fisherman.

A gordian approach to knot tying, November 22, 2007 Review By R. Ahern (Arlington, VA usa) – (REAL NAME)
Lefty Kreh has put together a comprehensive book of clear drawings, coupled with a video of the southpaw himself carrying on about the knots. The knots are for virtually any fishing application, not just for fly fishing. The book is ring bound and sturdily covered for field used. The book and DVD are wonderfully complementary, and I have always enjoyed Kreh’s “just folks” stage presence. You can’t go wrong with this set.

knot book with dvd, August 8, 2008 Review By Lawrence C. Clower (DFW, Texas) – (REAL NAME)
This would be just another Lefty book, except for the dvd included. Because of the dvd, it’s the best fishing knot resource out there.

You are determined to learn how to fish. There exist different ways of learning, the most difficult one is trial and error. It would be best to find an instructor for one-on-one courses. But lets stick to the basics of learning how to fish.

1. Buy seasickness medication

There is nothing as bad as ruining your fishing because of seasickness. Seasickness medication such as Bonine would be fine. On rough days, even seasoned fishermen are known to take some. Take one prior to go to bed, a second one when you wake up and a third one before you get on the boat.

2. Go to a party

Some party boats that hold from fifteen to as many as sixty anglers. The boat supplies everything like bait, rod, reel, hooks and sinkers. They assist you in fishing and take the fish off the hook for you. Other fishers will spot you and will generally sit beside you help you. Party boats generally will cost you between 25 to 70 dollars a day, and you can keep the fish. The party boat is a bargain for beginners.

3. Pick your pier

You need to look for a fishing pier, assuming you have already acquired skills to operate a rod and reel. Majority of coastal towns have one public pier or pay-to-fish pier. You can buy bate and rent tackle at the piers. If you’re having trouble, there are many pier anglers that can help and offer you tips.
